Hell yes.

2-0 baby! I'm calling it now! SUPERBOWL! LOL

I've stopped saying they'll be back. I'll say they're back when they're back. I am hopeful for Penn State though now that Ohio State is in the shit hole. And make no mistake about it Tressel was the brains of that organization, and they won't be the same with out him or Pyror. Can't wait to...

So yeah like the title says, this penn state deal has really been on my heart for the past couple days as details have been trickling out. This was basically an exercise in journalistic catharsis for me. you don't have to read it, but i hope that you do. also feel free to discuss the topic as gut...

Who wants to read a 14,000 word evisceration of big time college athletics? Well, you should because it's really good.

Thank God it starts today. The dry season is finally over. There should even be a few good matches this week, starting with the Oregon Boise St. match tonight. But I'm also really pumped for 'Bama and VA Tech this weekend. So, I'm sure everybody has Florida going to the BCS Championship again,...

I think Baywatch was hiding something from us lol. http://www.wcpo.com/dpp/news/lifeguards%27-high-pay-riles-calif.-beach-city

Anyone else tried these? I just got a pair, and we have to take a class to be allowed to wear them at PT. We're encouraged repeatedly to start slow (1/2 mile at most and increase from there). Well I went the opposite route and played an hour of basketball in them yesterday afternoon because I...

http://sports.espn.go.com/new-york/nfl/news/story?id=5816234 It's unfortunate that one piece of shit can give a city a bad stigma in the blink of an eye.

http://sports.yahoo.com/mma/blog/cagewriter/post/UFC-124-winner-Pierson-given-choice-to-be-a-fig?urn=mma-296415 I guess it'd be more of the hardcore conservative to blame for this kind of thing, but hippies are the root of all evil.

This is a game from the CFL that was played last night. It was Montreal vs. Toronto and I have never seen an ending like it. Just to set things up, as the CFL rules are slightly different from the NFL. Game is tied with a couple of seconds on the clock. Montreal is attempting a field goal from...

This is going to be a game to watch!!

Boy, I am a bit late with this. But here we go: it's all or nothing now folks! Quarter finals: Uruguay vs Ghana Round of 16 (still to be played): Germany vs England Argentina vs Mexico

Well, this has been a crazy off season. Who would have thought the story would go from "The Big 10 may spend a year thinking about expansion" to "Well, looks like the Big 12 is doomed and we're going to wind up with a couple of superconferences." That said I'm pumped that the Big 10 added...

With 56 days to go till kickoff, it's time to start building up some anxiety. For those of you not familiar with the World Cup (is that even possible?), it is the largest sporting event in the world, bar none. The final match alone attracts a reported one billion viewers. I imagine that the other...

The Boston Chokeins. up 3-0 in the series. easy. up 3-0 in game 7 because you gave away the last 3 games. easy. lose game 7, 4-3 because you choked. priceless... GO PHILLY!

So is this the end of the King in Cleveland? I didn't see the game, but I've heard he was actually boo'ed. I hope this isn't true, but if it is, that's a great way to take a shit on a guy who just threw down a triple double with the rest of the team unable to pull their weight. Guess this isn't the...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jv95EBODC1w Just want to make sure you're all aware you'll be watching my Bulldogs in the Final 4 for the first time in history. http://sports.espn.go.com/blog/collegebasketballnation/post/_/id/9531/ten-things-to-know-about-this-final-four

Don't forget to vote for Lane Kiffin as sexiest woman alive. http://www.esquire.com/women/the-sexiest-woman-alive/bracket-tournament/natalie-gulbis-vs-lane-kiffin

Anybody else as excited as me for the Olympic games? I love Olympic hockey and cannot wait. Canada and Russia look like they have the best rosters. I really like their chances. Yzerman did a great job. What do the folks north of the border think? As for team USA, we're deservedly underdogs....

It has begun. Anybody else watch this besides me? I love itttttttttttt. Very excited to see Kramer in action. I hope he doesn't do the Dutch thing and choke on the big day (*COUGH WORLD CUP COUGH*)

Who will win the division? Explain.

So I was cheering for Texas all along but called the game done as soon as McCoy was out. I feel for the guy... Last game for him and its a National Championship game and he had to sit there and watch a Freshman suck ass against the #1 Defense Team in College Football. It would have been a...

Well, I certainly didn't see that coming. The dude is quitting at the height of his career.

Who will win the division? Explain.

Who will win the division? Explain.

Poor little Bradford hurt his shoulder and OU once again shows how badly their offense needs him. Although, Texas Offense was sucking badly too. Both Defenses were doing very well. That was one of the most back and forth games I have ever seen. Good job OU... not.

If New England fell off the country and under the ocean, as long as all of the Patriots went with it I would be willing to sacrifice Weave and Maddog... sorry guys, it's for the greater good.

Who will win the division? Explain.

Not the best news for the Bolts which had playoff hopes this year. :nono: http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2009/football/nfl/09/06/merriman.arrested.ap/index.html

ok ok I know this deal doesn't start for another 14 months or so, but come on I can't be the only one who's excited about it, even on a north american-based forum :). so i thought maybe we can hit off some discussions now and throughout the buildup towards the grand finale of the beautiful game. so...

I recreated the league that we had last year. Still on yahoo: http://football.fantasysports.yahoo.com/ League info follows: League ID#: 821571 Password: hffootball Draft is on the 8th, sorry for late notice, I forgot all about it. Feel free to join!

Looks like the man is finally staying retired. Bout fucking time he made a decision.

http://www.cnn.com/2009/US/08/13/vick.eagles/index.html I'm glad someone picked him up. The 6 game suspension was horse shit. The guy did prison time! What's his face from the Browns killed a MAN because he was hammered, and he got a slap on the wrist.

2 Titles on the line. Some of the best fighters in the business going at it tonight. I'm heading to a bar to watch it, anyone else tuning in? BROCK LESNAR! If I was this big, I would do this every morning in the mirror.

Artest to Lakers, 'Sheed to Celtics, Carter to Magic, and Shaq to Cavs. It is pretty interesting. The top 4 teams have added some veteran guns to their arsenal. Though they surely are not long term investments and there have been other teams with great trades recently, will the top four next...

Yesterday Lance slipped into 3rd from 10th place overall and only 40 seconds back from the leader. Today Astana took the team time trial and Cancellara's team came in 3rd 40 seconds behind. Lance Armstrong is second place and less than 1 second from first place heading into tomorrow's 5th round. ...

So who else is excited for the 09-10 season after all the commontion this last week? After grabbing Jaybo's negotiation rights and signing him from Florida i've been fucking ecstatic. That we drafted another solid Defensemen in the first round has also excited me.. I have a feeling we're going to...

The Cleveland Cavaliers have acquired center Shaquille O’Neal from the Phoenix Suns in exchange for forward/center Ben Wallace, guard/forward Sasha Pavlovic, Cleveland’s second round pick in the 2010 NBA Draft (top-40 protected) and cash considerations, General Manager Danny Ferry announced today....

http://www.cnn.com/2009/CRIME/06/18/nfl.browns.stallworth.suspended/index.html At least the NFL has more common sense than the judicial system. Vick got 1 year for killing fucking dogs, don't get me wrong I love dogs, but they're still fucking dogs. This asshole killed a person and got 30...

...that is all. (go watch the final shot replay on espn.com if you didn't see it)
